Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss apple slices with sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla in a bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Brush a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with melted butter. Layer 3 phyllo sheets into the skillet, brushing each with butter.

  3. Step 3

    Spread apple mixture evenly over phyllo. Layer remaining 3 phyllo sheets on top, brushing each with butter.

  4. Step 4

    Cut phyllo into a lattice pattern (diagonal lines both directions) without cutting through to the apples.

  5. Step 5

    Bake until phyllo is golden brown and apples are tender, 12-14 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Remove from oven and dust generously with powdered sugar while still warm. Serve immediately.
